The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) congratulates former Vice President,
Presidential candidate of our great party in the 2019 general election
and one of the founding fathers of the PDP, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar,
Waziri Adamawa, as he attains the milestone age of 74 years.
Alhaji Atiku Abubakar is an outstanding nationalist, a vital national
democratic icon and one of the foremost leading lights of our nation.
Atiku Abubakar remains a remarkable leader who embodies our nation’s
collective quest for national cohesion, equity and justice, political
stability, constitutional order, true federalism, economic empowerment,
particularly for our youths, free market economy as well as wealth
creation for a prosperous nation, in line with the manifesto of our
great party.
Atiku Abubakar’s success in business and entrepreneurship as well as his
achievements as the Chairman of the National Economic Council, in
lifting our economy while serving as Vice President under the Obasanjo
administration, amply demonstrates the capacity of our nation to
economically excel in the hands of good managers.
Indeed, such credentials informed the overwhelming support by Nigerians
in their manifest determination to elect him as their President in the
2019 election but for the obvious manipulations witnessed in that
election.
The PDP therefore joins family members, millions of compatriots as well
as friends, associates and the international community in celebrating
Alhaji Atiku Abubakar on this auspicious occasion and prays God to bless
him with many more years of selfless service to our dear fatherland and
humanity in general.
